San Francisco
50 Moraga Ave, San Francisco, CA 94129

811 Ulloa St, San Francisco, CA 94127
To up the ante on Lazy Susan’s current Lazy plates for lunch, the restaurant will be offering a “double meat” option starting on June 1st. From June 13-17th, in celebration of Father’s Day, they will be offering the meaty upgrade for free for those who use the promo code (FATHERSDAY). This is equivalent to a full meat-based entree alongside a crispy spring roll and side of white, brown, veggie fried rice, or veggie chow mein for $12.95. Thanks to the generous portions, the meal is guaranteed to satisfy any hungry dad out there, and who knows, maybe even result in some leftovers.
South Bay
132 State St, Los Altos, CA 94022
Why not escape the City for Father’s Day this year in exchange for some wide open spaces and… parking. Aurum is the perfect destination. Add a family hike in the Los Altos hills to your plans before or after a meal or browse the walkable shops in Downtown.
Experience Chef Tyagi’s fun spin on a few American classics with items like Tandoori Chicken wings. For the full list of specials, check out the complete menu here.
